Honor’s Challenge Part 2
The second challenge that we face as we learn to walk in honor is that of the “I” life. The battle encompasses the desire to be recognized and be honored rather than to honor. Because of sin, our old nature fancies to keep our inherent selfishness exalted rather than to submit to the word of God. We must learn to live a life of surrender as we are unable to both please God and live according to our selfish nature. If any have been dishonored or defiled then a third challenge arises … to turn from the wounded or damaged place to accept healing. Unless the woundedness has been openly addressed and appropriately healed through God’s bathing grace the damage caused by the defilement will spill over on to others. God’s bountiful grace will heal us from the inside out … beauty for ashes bathed in the oil of joy as we submit to His touch.
